Wrexham 3-0 Yeovil Town: Rob McElhenney watches on as ruthless Dragons fire themselves to the brink of National League title

Wrexham fired themselves to within touching distance of a historic return to the EFL by easing their way to a 3-0 win over Yeovil Town at the Racecourse.

Anthony Forde, making his first league appearance for the club since the end of February, set the hosts on their way by lashing home on the hour, before James Jones tucked away a second.

Top scorer Paul Mullin then added gloss to the win by heading home his 45th goal of the season.

It means Wrexham will end their 15-year exile from the EFL with victory at home to Boreham Wood on Saturday.

In contrast, the result condemned Yeovil, who were playing in the Championship ten years ago, to the National League South.

After taking in a dramatic win over Notts County on his last visit to the Racecourse, co-owner Rob McElhenney was treated to a far more routine victory this around, although the Glovers certainly did their bit to frustrate the hosts during a competitive first half.

Indeed, visiting boss Mark Cooper will likely have been pretty pleased with the start made by his team at a raucous Racecourse Ground, although chances for both sides were largely at a premium for much of the opening 45 minutes.

Miguel Freckleton perhaps should have done better after getting on the end of Charlie Cooper's early corner, but could only flick the ball off a Wrexham defender and into the arms of Ben Foster.

Wrexham, fresh off a stuttering performance at Barnet over the weekend, laboured to find their stride during the opening 20 minutes, although Tom Cannon admittedly came close to settling any nerves, rasping an effort just wide after being teed up by Mullin.

The visitors were then dealt an early setback when Owen Bevan was forced off with an injury midway through the first half.
